One important distinction is between weather effects that are over time periods that are easy to predict and longer time periods where the cause and effect can’t be predicted.
Redirecting hurricanes would be very valuable but if you look at the governance of the US, I think it’s very hard to imagine that processes would be created that manage it well.
You don’t want the effects to be predictable enough that people can sue for weather that’s inconvenient for their goals. At least in the beginning that might prevent technology deployment.
